love asrock since am4. the b550m steel legend i bought dirt cheap for 125€ new 2 years ago is definitley my all time favorite of all boards i owned so far. and thats a lot
You have to remember with cheaper boards other than taichi. They lack external bclk chip so if you are doing base clock overclocking example on x3d cpu and wanna keep system stable you NEED external bclk chip. And yes Nova doesn't have external bclk chip either. Only taichi line up has it on x870. Just to note this one for all those Nova lovers.
Steel Legend was always good. They made it even better. I am still rocking my Asrock B450M Steel Legend from 2021 and a Ryzen 5 5500 with 4x8GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16. I kept the infinity fabric on 1600MHz.
@@BladeCrew Thanks for the response. Reason I asked, I removed a working X570 motherboard from a build and put it in the closet for about 6 months and upon using it for another build the CMOS battery had died.
259 is still expensive for a motherboard these days. However, it always seems like ASRock are the ones to have the best value motherboards in comparison to all the other manufacturers. Amazing how far they've come, I still remember when people used to say avoid ASRock motherboards.
I really like that this steel legend isn't some kind of digital camo paint. Its the best looking steel legend so far, and really hard to beat for $230. I love how the Taichi looks. I like how it says "philosophy of infinite potential" instead of GAMING PRO GAMING PHANTOM GAMING REPUBLIC GAMING TUF GAMING GAMING GAMING GAMERS GAMING like every other board
You mentioned Gigabyte BIOS lagging on their newest boards. This is a small consolation for me as I flashed my B550 AORUS ELITE AX V2 to the latest BIOS version today and guess what it's lagging.
In terms of look/color, i personally think Asrock stepped up with the this x870 steel legend, compared to previous, i much prefer this new and more cleaner white/silver look over the military pattern look.
Hey Brian, will you review any of the upcoming Z890 boards from ASRock? Interested to see what differences are between the Taichi Lite and the Nova/Riptide
What you mean only board that do 6400 1:1 ?? Im running on b650m hdv/m.2 its $120 board . And i have seen loads of peeps running it on various b650 mobos . You dont need expensive board right , it all comes down to the cpu's memory controller whatever the mobo is , unless its not a crappy one

Awesome video thank you. I have been eyeing up the Asrock x870E Tachi Lite for my next board upgrade. It is one of the few boards that has 6 Sata ports which is important to me because I have a lot of sata drives with a mix of HDD and SSD for my storage needs. Most boards only have 4 sata ports which will not work for me and I do not want to have to resort to a PCI-e card for extra sata ports as that can cause problems sometimes or lower than expected performance.
I too have found my X870 Aorus BIOS laggy - but note how I've spent approximately 28 seconds navigating and enabling EXPO in the BIOS, and updated firmware to patch against SinkClose hack, and have then never had to use it again.
I'm on an Asrock B650 RS Pro. There is a ton of quality here, but depending on the RX 8800XT offer, I will switch to a Live Mixer or a Steel Legend. Both are insane in I/O and both have heavy heatsinks. I have a new home for my current board - another PC. I would like to check out something else. Something new with a nice design or just a different look (white PCB?). You test only those MoBos I like and use. 😄
I have used ASRock almost exclusively for the last few years, but they let me down big time when my Z790 board died. They sent me a bad replacement and now won't respond to my emails or tickets. I'll be going back to MSI or Gigabyte next time, Asus burned me years ago with a $1000 dual-socket workstation board and they could release something made of solid unobtainium that would predict the winning lottery numbers and I'd hesitate to buy it.
*My top 4 favorite ASRock motherboards* In price : 1. The ASRock B650 LiveMixer 2. The ASRock B650 Pro RS 3. The ASRock B650 STEEL LEGEND 4. The ASRock B650E Taichi Lite

Yeah indeed, That is why I stick to ASROCK B650(e) Motherboards ! Just until something extremely special comes out ! ( just don't see it yet on the 800 series )
Hey Bryan, consider creating new X58 content, perhaps a modern update with NVME, Wi-Fi 7, and an optimal GPU such as an RTX 2070 or RTX 3060, as the prices for this hardware are now more affordable. With the release of Windows 24H2, I've found that performance is better than ever. Also, highlight any pros and cons.
*I just LOVE the ASROCK B650 Steel Legend Lite ! NOTHING can beat it !* ( To be fair, I haven't tried the 850 yet , just because I see no need for it, for an average Gamer ! Maybe within 2 years ?! *But for sure, the X670 or 870, is more for extreme Over Clockers !* So not really for gamers ! *Gamers do very well on B550 , B650 ! Maybe B850 in the future !*
So asrock added Mem Clock , to b650e MB ... interesting , and you have a choice white = x870 steel legends and black = x870 riptide same board just difrent colors...
my B550 Steel Legend has a 7-Segment Display for Error Codes. ASRock should keep these on their Enthusiast boards. why did they remove it and only have it on the Taichi now?
The Taichi boards are documented as E-ATX boards, but I cannot find from the boards' documentation the actual width of the boards. I'm trying to find out if the boards would fit in a particular case that indicates it supports E-ATX but under 280mm. Can you please tell me the width of the Taichi Lite board?
X870 and B840 are such examples of scummy naming scheme, looks like their excuse is probably OEMs wanting em to bigger number better, unless ofc, B840 boards got beefier VRMs by default, instead of some weaker ones in A620.
I still use x1 and x4 pcie slots and ASROCK are worst mainboards in that regard. I don't need shared pcie with x16 slot or that x2 slot. I used in the past ASROCK mainboards but last 2 generations have no use to me in any way. I could use risers but I don't really enjoy having wires hanging all over inside the case. ASROCK should ask people before building the boards and I think they will have bigger sales.
support as can use, but stable or not depends on the 800 series brand & how they tune it. Its the same as before on x670 series release, 6000 ram also can use, but not all stable until later bios version update
@@arthur_pd Indeed in fact hardware unboxed has a video were they test more than 20 X870s motherboards and many of them can reach 8000 MHz out of the box, so for this two to reach 6400 must be a most!

There is only one good motherboard in that series imo and that is the ASRock X870e NOVA the rest is just sad espescially when you compare the price.
not really, their flagship tachi series is also really good & competitive on pricing as well when compare to all other brands. Asrock flaships taichi has the lowest price when vs other brands top of the line or flagship series boards
@@arthur_pd Not really, it's much cheaper for the same chipset and has a much better VRM cooler and can overclock highest of all X870E motherboards
@@arthur_pd try reading the real specs, they are all the same, PERIOD !
